Today, I had my 17 year old daughter call me from school in tears because she&#8217;d been in the office for over an hour with 2 vice principles and the school policeman interrogating her over a picture she posted on Instagram of her hand holding my husband&#8217;s new Glock. &#8220;Someone&#8221; reported the picture, and that it made them feel nervous and intimidated.<\/p>\n<p>Then the police showed up at our home to &#8220;see&#8221; my husbands gun and encourage him to come get a trigger lock even though it isn&#8217;t a law here to have one. I went to the school to get my daughter, they made her remove the picture from her Instagram and told her she wasn&#8217;t allowed to talk about the incident. They had 3 police in the school search her locker and gym locker. The reporting person is allowed to stay anonymous.<\/p>\n<p>My daughter can&#8217;t defend herself in any way and has to remove a private picture from her Instagram account. They were probably pissed that while trying to intimidate her by telling her how irresponsible it was that her finger was touching the trigger, she responded by telling them her step-dad had cleared the gun prior to handing it to her and that you can clearly see in the picture there wasn&#8217;t even a magazine in the gun.<\/p>\n<p>They were surprised that I had approved the picture before it was put up and that I still see nothing wrong with it. I&#8217;m not sure what I&#8217;m going to do about any of it but wanted to share the insanity.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>She didn&#8217;t tell us the name of the school or the town, I&#8217;m guessing because she doesn&#8217;t want it to splash back on her children. We&#8217;ve read stories about kids getting suspended for pointing their index finger and drawing pictures of guns and this is just as ridiculous. It doesn&#8217;t sound like the teenager threatened anyone, but a picture is somehow threatening all by itself. It&#8217;s no wonder that politicians feel pressured to pass anything to appear as if they&#8217;re doing something.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>ADDED: Here&#8217;s the scary photo; One of our fans on Facebook sent us this message about &hellip; <a title=\"Irrational fears\" class=\"hm-read-more\" href=\"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/?p=33645\"><span class=\"screen-reader-text\">Irrational fears<\/span>Read more<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[145],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-33645","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-schools"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/33645","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=33645"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/33645\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=33645"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=33645"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=33645"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
